Decades Post – The Brutalist 30s

Colors: The colors of the 1930s were incorporated with very dark fabrics. Pretty much sums up the mood in which regular people lived in during that era.

Fashion: In the 1930s, the complete silhouette for women’s fashion completely changed, forming some type of fabric or outfit that suits and really hugs a woman’s body. In the 1920s the silhouette was really rectangular and in the 1930s there was some form of seeing the woman’s body.

Furniture: The furniture for the 1930s were based on a style named Hollywood Regency. It incorporated the glamour and extravagant things in Hollywood. In the images below, I provided images of Hollywood Regency before in its’ actual time period, and Hollywood Regency in furniture today.

Cars: The cars of the 1930s were cheap when compared to car prices today. Man of them have the same styles as the cars in the 1920s. Just a little bit of improvements. The following images were cars in that decade.

Auburn 1931 (5 Passengers/2 Doors)

Cadillac 61 1939 (5 Passengers/4 Doors)
